Hi there, I'm trying to find a book from the 1980s, a child's novel, about a boy who can enter the consciousness of animals. I think his name is Caleb. He dies at the end after being kicked in the head by a horse, but his consciousness was in a bird at the time so he lives on in this way. Please can anyone help?

Song of the Wild by Allan W. Eckert.
Twelve-year-old Caleb Erikson, who was born with a strange and wonderful talent that lets him take his mind inside any living creature he sees, sharing everything it experiences. With his special gift he can soar into the sky within a red-winged blackbird, run freely inside the horses he loves, or share the experiences of a great old tree as it undergoes the violence of a storm.
